In SW:toR we're on a strictly RP (not even RP/PVE) server, and most names are appropriate, and people RP. But, here and there, you spot the morons. Because they want to be spotted. They fashion themselves rebels and wits. Anyway, from last night, the "name," spotted by Spooky, Z'omglol.
The idiot was gone before I could even tell him what a fucking idiot he was.

- 31 May 2023, 00:21I'd rather have a vampire than a creationist. Something comforting about the blood.

Sanctum of the Exalted.
If I can ever be buggered to get a non-dialup internet connection, I really will have to check this (and Rifts) out. Hope you get a commission, in that event, somehow... it's your salesmanship that'd make it happen.
I PvP regularly in World of Warcraft, and that is a short route to the dumbest names one can imagine. Just recently, off the top of my head, I've seen:
"Drdipshit" (with an accent over the second "i" to get past automatic filters)
"Holypusy" [sic]
"Bigjohnsonn" [sic]
And a hunter who'd named his pet "ButtRape."
Since most of these types of names are violations of terms of service, I dutifully report them; first offense typically ranges from a warning to a 3-day ban (depending on the severity), and then increasing levels of suspensions up to and including permanent account suspensions.
I report as many as I can. It gets overwhelming.
And yes, this is coming from someone whose usual test/demo character name in CRPGs is "Rødd Fünnschaft"... not that I would pull that shit online.
WoW has autoburnt itself for me; I just have heard nothing about it from its most serious, all-growed-up, and hard-working fans to make it appealing... but Rifts, and KotOR... well, I'm open to the possibility.
The only Holypus[s]y alive today that I acknowledge is the ancient tiny ginger tabby hypostasis lying on my chest and glaring resentfully at the keyboard, at this moment...
It also helps if you don't take the game seriously. For all the attempts at being Epic and Dramatic, it's fundamentally a game in which I've fought and killed Bronjam, the Godfather of Souls.
Rift and SW:TOR are much more about the Serious Business sort of gameplay. I can't get past Rift's art direction, personally, but I did enjoy TOR when I played during one of the beta weekends. I'm waiting for it to get past the New MMO jitters and bugs right now, as well as for when BioWare patches in same-sex romances, before I consider picking the game up myself, though. (My wife, OTOH, would already be playing if there was a MacOS client.)
